Aussie philoso-RPG Broken Roads is emerging from its state of koala-like hibernation with a new release date. After a lengthy delay, it’ll now arrive on April 10 this year, which so far as I can tell is a date with no relevance to Australia at all apart from being the birthday of lawn bowler Steve “Biscuits” Glasson. So it’s probably to coincide with that.
Once upon a time, Broken Roads was one of our most-anticipated games of 2023, and it was meant to hit on November 14 of that year. That went down the dunny after a last-minute delay that punted it into 2024.
As a wise man once said, “Late is just for a little while. Suck is forever,” so I can’t be too mad at the hold-up. Still, Broken Roads’ heady mix of highfalutin’ philosophy and a distinctly antipodean …

I really thought Black Friday would be when we saw SSDs reach their absolute lowest possible prices. Thankfully, I was wrong. This 1TB WD Black SN770 SSD is going for the lowest price I’ve ever seen it selling for. It’s just $60 at Amazon.
Oh and if that sells out (which it really might), there’s another listing for just a dollar more over on Best Buy.
In our WD Black SN770 review last year we said of the SSD, “It isn’t the fastest drive around, nor is it quite the cheapest (although it is close), but it does balance the two better than most.”
That still rings true today in terms of this drive’s performance. There are much faster PCIe 4.0 drives than this, and that’s ignoring the PCIe 5.0 drives just about coming through. Though few others are so cheap and offer as muc…
Read moreEver fantasize about making your own game? Probably. Ever fantasize about making your own game while running a development studio, managing your employees, balancing your budget, crunching to meet deadlines, getting angry texts from your studio’s investors, and dealing with data breaches? Maybe not.
Let’s Build a Dungeon is a new management sim just announced by Springloaded, maker of 2021’s Let’s Build a Zoo. In fact, in a lot of ways, Let’s Build a Dungeon is based on the making of Let’s Build a Zoo and Springloaded’s earlier games. Check out the trailer below to see how you can design, build, and play your own MMORPG in Let’s Build a Dungeon… and how that’s really just the tip of the game dev iceberg.

Read moreThe quest to save Star Wars Jedi: Survivor from its bumpy entry into the gaming atmosphere continues with a new patch that promises to stomp out an issue that’s been plaguing players trying to take down the Haxion Brood. The bounty hunter side-quests—which involve working with the stylish Nautolan Caij Venda—have been riddled with buggy blaster holes.
In May, players reported a bug which stopped Caij from cooperating in her duties to save your hide from Jedi hunters. Would-be completionists found themselves stumped as Caij outright refused to tip you off to your next target: and without her conversations to trigger their spawning, they just stopped showing up. In some cases Caij would even become invisible, which is a very extreme way to back out of a side-gig.

Read moreAuthorities in Massachusetts have brought to trial a man who allegedly ran a cryptocurrency mining operation out of the crawlspace beneath a high school in Cohasset, a small coastal town about 20 miles outside of Boston. The operation was discovered in late 2021 by a by a town employee who noticed electrical wires and temporary ductwork in an “elevated crawl space” nearby the school’s boiler room.
The narrow crawlspace contained what appears to be two sets of specialized mining rigs, one cluster of five and another of six computers, according to photos released by the Cohasset Police Department. The equipment was patched into the school’s electrical system and was housed in several coolers with ducts venting hot air to the outside.
Police’s primary suspect in the crime is on…
Read moreOverwatch 2 just got a small mid-season patch that buffs a few of the heroes and improves competitive matchmaking slightly, and while most of the changes are pretty minimal, one sticks out like a sore thumb: Sigma’s ultimate is even more terrifying than it was before.
Sigma’s ultimate Gravitic Flux lifts enemies in an eight-meter radius, launching them into the sky and then dragging them back down to earth, dealing 50 damage on take-off and then follow-up damage of 50% of a hero’s max health once they are slammed into the floor. This means most squishy heroes like Tracer or Ana can be killed in one fell swoop.
There aren’t a lot of ways to counter this, with the few exceptions being a personal/projected barrier from Zarya, Mei’s cryo-freeze, or Kiriko’s protectio…
Read morePC-specific fixes are coming to Star Wars Jedi- Survivor, but EA says there’s still work to be done-
Star Wars Jedi: Survivor released in an unhappy state. So unhappy, in fact, that its user review rating on Steam rapidly hit “mostly negative” (although it’s improved to “mixed” since then) and EA had to come out and promise fixes for its condition. It’s a shame, since the game underneath all that technical mess is actually pretty good. Today, Respawn detailed its upcoming fourth patch, which is set to hit PC “as soon as possible this week,” with more than a few PC-only fixes.
The changes all look pretty granular to me, although any improvement is welcome, and EA is quick to emphasise that more work remains to be done. Still, you can look forward to ray tracing fixes, less hitching, improved non-ray tracing performance, and some tweaks to alleviate visual errors and bugs.…
Read moreReview bombs are an endemic part of the modern media landscape at this point. Whether they’re about player frustration, politics, or just because a crypto company bought your game, we’ve all become well-accustomed to the long red candles that pockmark Metacritic and Steam user review charts during periods of controversy. But there’s usually some discernible reason for the review bombs, even if it’s a really bad one.
Not so in the case of Chained Echoes, a 16-bit throwback JRPG from developer Matthias Linda that is, by all accounts, really rather good. But as spotted by GamesRadar, its Metacritic user review score wilted beneath a wave of negative reviews that contained no actual written text whatsoever, leaving its dev and publisher helpless to do anything about it.
“Chained…
